The Shansheying battalion wore leather armor, kept silent, and fired according to the order.
Immediately, there was blood in front of his eyes, and the Xiliang soldiers staggered and fell to the ground one by one. Unless they hit the vital point immediately, it would be difficult to die on the spot.
The tremendous pain caused continuous screams, and the smell of blood filled the air.
Through the night, you can see that the door is piled with corpses, and the ground is dyed red with blood. Those who are temporarily immortal are ordered: "Come forward and refill the gun."
"Yes" The newly joined soldiers and the officers and soldiers who defended the city stabbed the corpses one by one with their spears.
Suddenly, two Xiliang soldiers jumped out from the corpse. They were covered in blood and had been hit by arrows. They yelled and rushed forward desperately.
"Stab!" The chief shouted, and only four or five spears from the temporarily organized soldiers responded, but this was enough. After only a few shouts, three spears stabbed him.
A Xiliang soldier's face was covered in blood, and he roared. Blood spurted out from where three spears were pierced, and he fell to the ground unwillingly.
Jiang Chen watched indifferently and saw corpses scattered in front of the door. The situation calmed down. He waved his hand and glanced around, and everyone around him was obeying the order.
"You did a good job opening the city gate. I will personally report to the lord when he comes." Jiang Chen's voice was not loud, but it sounded clear.
The gatekeeper was overjoyed and saluted quickly: "Thank you, General Zhang."
Jiang Chen waved his hand again and said, "There is no need to thank me. Even if you do, this is the Lord's grace."
At this time, dark clouds covered the sky. As he spoke, there was a thunder, and it exploded on the top, followed by raindrops. Jiang Chen knew clearly that the matter was urgent, but did not show any panic. He stood up slowly, walked a few steps, and then said
Author: "Do you know the big arsenal?"
The gatekeeper immediately responded: "I know."
"Okay, you take me there." Jiang Chen raised his face and looked into the distance, smiled coldly, and said gloomily: "The first, second, and third troops will stay, and the rest will follow me to the arsenal, and the Shanshe Battalion will follow."
The organization of the Han Dynasty army was as follows: five men per corps (Wuchang), ten men per shi (Shichang), fifty men per corps (captain), one hundred men per tun (tunnel chief), and two hundred men per qu (junhou).
, One Thousand Persons (Sima or Xiaowei)
Now for this army of ten thousand people, it can be said that the first, second and third troops (three thousand people) retain some combat effectiveness and do not need to replenish their weapons, while the fourth to ten troops are temporarily formed and have insufficient weapons, so they must be led by themselves.
And use the good shooting camp to suppress it.
"Yes" The soldiers immediately followed the general and left in the wind and rain.
Everyone in Luoyang City was closed, and Xiliang soldiers were stationed at the entrances of important streets. At this time, they came to kill them, and the sound of killings was so loud that people in the houses along the way were so frightened that they huddled on their beds and even trembled in the corners.
Just for a moment, even if it was raining, there were many fires in the city, the sky turned red, and the sound of killing could be heard from far away from time to time.
Restaurant
In a restaurant, there were several tables sitting by the window facing the street, and more than twenty people were eating and drinking. The group was drinking and drinking, and they were all a little tipsy. If you look closely, you can see that they are all descendants of aristocratic families.
Inside, Wang Ling was thinking a lot. What happened to Diao Chan last time, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he felt vaguely regretful. Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a long hiss from below, and someone came straight up and pushed the door open.
He shouted: "It's not good, the city is open, Liu Bei is coming to the city."
As soon as these words came out, everyone changed their expressions. Wang Ling, who had taken the military power among them, was the first to calm down and shouted: "Why are you panicking?"
He listened and listened for a moment, then sneered: "There will not be many people entering the city, and the killing will not be violent. Please tell me carefully what is going on."
These words were so powerful that everyone immediately froze in their hearts, and they came to their senses. Just as they were thinking about it, they heard this man report: "Liu Shijun has an army of about 10,000 people. I'm afraid he is the vanguard. Originally,
We could no longer attack the city, so the city guard turned against us and opened the gate, and now we are heading straight to the arsenal."
"It seems that a large arsenal may not necessarily be a vanguard. Although a large arsenal is important, if it is a large army and has its own weapons, why go straight to the rebels?" Someone listened, drank a cup, and sneered: "
The weapons are crude, so armor, weapons and equipment are needed.”
"That's true, but even for the rebels, entering the city at this time is very tricky. Everyone is smart, so this is a choice."
"Should we cooperate with the rebels and defend Luoyang and hand it over to Ambassador Liu, or should we help the Xiliang army and strangle these rebels?" Someone said with a faint sigh.
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in confusion. Wang Ling hesitated, recalled Diao Chan's last warning, and listened to the increasingly louder commotion and killing sounds in the distance. He stood up and sighed: "We are almost near the arsenal.
The response of the army in the city was so slow..."
Just as he was talking, suddenly, there were many fires nearby. Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they immediately sent people to go: "Go quickly, why is someone setting fire?"
In the light of the fire, someone could be seen fighting, and someone shouted: "The Dong thieves are going to set fire to the city."
Wang Ling gritted his teeth and remained silent. After a moment, the people sent out rolled over and crawled over. Someone grabbed him and said, "Tell me, what happened?"
"It was the Xiliang army that set the fire. It is said to be the order from the Grand Master before leaving the city."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of all the family members were livid. This was going to burn their roots. Everyone was immediately filled with indignation. Wang Ling smiled bitterly: "The Grand Master is acting against the will, and we have no choice."
"Yes, let's go back to the house immediately and mobilize our troops to help Ambassador Liu." Everyone said, only one young man frowned. Wang Ling glanced at him: "Why is Sima doing this?"
This young man was Sima Yi. At this time, he just smiled slightly: "I only admire Liu Bei as a hero. After entering Luo, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get him out."
A certain house in Luoyang
Niu Fu was furious: "Asshole, these evil rats have not been separated, how can they break into the city again?
He jumped on his feet and shouted: "Put me in armor"
Dong Zhuo's army
One hundred and fifty thousand men formed a large camp, and the main force was only fifty miles away from Luoyang, which was not too far away. Ye Qing's so-called one-day journey usually referred to the cavalry forward. Scouts from both sides even appeared near the opponent's main force, and the cavalry forward exchanged fire, but
There are still dozens of miles between the main lunging forces.
In the big tent, the smile on Dong Zhuo's face slowly disappeared, and he said coldly: "You bastard, you fell into Liu Bei's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."
Just as he was about to attack the cavalry and rescue him, Gao Shun advised him: "Don't turn back lightly when the army is out, just like a sword is unsheathed but cannot be returned without blood. This may be Liu Bei's plan to tire out our army."
"Yes." Dong Zhuo responded noncommittally and took a heavy breath. The people below neither dared to move nor talk casually, and just watched without saying a word.
"Lord, if we return to Luoyang now, it is a trivial matter that our troops are weak." Li Ru stood up at this time and said, "The key now is that the big-eared thief is not far away."
"To be honest, the Big Ear Bandits have gathered 250,000 troops at this time, which is more than our army. They also have a lot of good generals. They should not be underestimated."
"Fortunately, Cao and Sun have different ambitions and have set up this plan to ambush on all sides. We can defeat this man in one fell swoop just like we did with the Overlord of Chu. This is the first priority."
After hearing this, Dong Zhuo walked around the big tent and arrived at the tent door. He raised his face and let the raindrops fall on his face, which was filled with coolness. After a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "You didn't mean it."
Wrong, defeating this big-eared thief is the first priority now, but we cannot ignore Luoyang's affairs."
Having said this, seeing Li Ru winking from below, Dong Zhuo reacted and remembered his original plan, and his sinister eyes flashed: "Block the news. Anyone who dares to spread it privately will be killed."
At the same moment, the exact same word came out of Niu Fu's mouth: "Burn"
"No, General." The generals looked at each other in shock and quickly begged for mercy.
"Humph, this is the Grand Master's previous instruction, you dare to disobey?" Niu Fu roared: "Anyway, all the officials have moved with the emperor, so what if Luoyang is burned down?"
Wang's Mansion
Wang Ling quickly entered. When he saw someone saluting, he didn't even have time to take a breath. He immediately gave an order in a dark voice: "Pass my order to have all the family soldiers put on their armor immediately and gather in the open space in the court."
"Hurry up and go." A middle-aged scholar saw the servant who received this order was dumbfounded. He followed the order and asked the servant to go away. Then he asked: "Sir, what's the matter? We need to use domestic soldiers."
"But something big has happened. Liu Shijun's vanguard has entered the city." Seeing the servant leaving, Wang Ling gave an overview of today's situation, and then said: "This vanguard is suspected to be a rebel army, and the number is not large. Originally,
There is still room, so once the Grand Master sets the fire, all the officials will have no choice."
The middle-aged literati thought for a while and said: "Indeed, I have no choice. I originally watched the Taishi's dragon and tiger steps, but I didn't want to do it like this."
"And this Liu Bei, who didn't seem unusual at first, now looks more and more like a king."
Wang Ling couldn't explain what he felt after hearing this. After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said: "The world is unpredictable. We can't watch Luoyang being burned down. We can only do this - but if this happens, what will happen in the future?
?”
"No problem," the middle-aged scholar said: "I saw yesterday that the Grand Master had death energy. Now that he has shown signs of death, I am afraid that his energy has been exhausted."
After hearing this, Wang Ling shook his hands and gritted his teeth: "If this is the case, wouldn't Liu Bei be invincible anymore? He can now establish the capital and proclaim himself emperor, and level the world within a few years?"
"It is possible, but I saw Liu Bei a year ago. Although he has the appearance of great success, he will never be able to become emperor within three years. There is still something to think about," the middle-aged scholar said quietly.
Just as he was talking, the general came in and said: "The soldiers in the front yard are all ready."
The two of them stopped talking and went out. They saw that the door was sealed tightly and about two hundred soldiers stood in a dark mass.
Wang Ling looked up and saw that these were the soldiers he had painstakingly cultivated over the past few years. They were the force that could be used at critical moments. He was very excited for a while, but at the same time he felt that working for the big-eared thief was not worth it.
However, at this time, the fire was everywhere, but there was no choice. He immediately shouted: "Dong is an unjust thief and wants to burn Luoyang. Let's fight him."
"Fight it!" someone shouted from every corner, and the shouts rose into the sky.
